The three-time Grammy-nominated artist will kick off the World Soccer Stars event with concerts in Karachi and Lahore between April 26 and 29. The event will see football legends Ricardo Kaka and Luis Figo in action, both of whom visited Pakistan last week to launch the tournament.

Speaking about the visit, Akon had earlier said, “It’s time to rock Pakistan, I am looking forward to visiting Karachi and Lahore with TouchSky Group. So let’s get it down in Pakistan with World Soccer Stars.”
